The Future Of The Supreme

P1291:5,117:7.1
The completed realization of all finite potentials equals the completion of
the realization of all evolutionary experience. This suggests the final emergence
of the Supreme as an almighty Deity presence in the universes. We believe that
the Supreme, in this stage of development, will be as discretely personalized
as is the Eternal Son, as
concretelypowerized as is the Isle of Paradise, as
completely unified as is the Conjoint Actor, and all of this within the limitations
of the finite possibilities of Supremacy at the culmination of the present universe
age. P1291:6,117:7.2
While this is an entirely proper concept of the future of the Supreme, we would
call attention to certain problems inherent in this concept:

P1291:7,117:7.3
1. The Unqualified Supervisors of the Supreme could hardly be
deitized at
any stage prior to his completed evolution, and yet these same supervisors
even now qualifiedly exercise the sovereignty of supremacy concerning the
universes settled in light and life.

P1291:8,117:7.4
2. The Supreme could hardly function in the Trinity Ultimate until he had
attained complete actuality of universe status, and yet the Trinity Ultimate
is even now a qualified reality, and you have been informed of the existence
of the Qualified Vicegerents of the Ultimate.

P1291:9,117:7.5
3. The Supreme is not completely real to universe creatures, but there are
many reasons for
deducing that he is quite real to the Sevenfold Deity, extending
from the Universal Father on Paradise to the Creator Sons and the Creative
Spirits of the local universes.

P1291:10,117:7.6
It may be that on the upper limits of the finite, where time
conjoins transcended
time, there is some sort of
blurring and blending of sequence. It may be that
the Supreme is able to forecast his universe presence onto these supertime
levels and then to a limited degree anticipate future evolution by reflecting
this future forecast back to the created levels as the Immanence of the Projected
Incomplete. Such phenomena may be observed wherever finite makes contact with
superfinite, as in the experiences of human beings who are indwelt by Thought
Adjusters that are veritable predictions of man's future universe attainments
throughout all eternity.

P1292:1,117:7.7
When mortal ascenders are admitted to the finaliter corps of Paradise, they
take an oath to the Paradise Trinity, and in taking this oath of allegiance,
they are thereby pledging eternal fidelity to God the Supreme, who is the
Trinity as comprehended by all finite creature personalities. Subsequently,
as the finaliter companies function throughout the evolving universes, they
are solely amenable to the mandates of Paradise origin until the eventful
times of the settling of local universes in light and life. As the new governmental
organizations of these perfected creations begin to be reflective of the emerging
sovereignty of the Supreme, we observe that the outlying finaliter companies
then acknowledge the jurisdictional authority of such new governments. It
appears that God the Supreme is evolving as the unifier of the evolutionary
Corps of the Finality, but it is highly probable that the eternal destiny
of these seven corps will be directed by the Supreme as a member of the Ultimate
Trinity.

P1292:2,117:7.8
The Supreme Being contains three superfinite possibilities for universe manifestation:

Absonite collaboration in the first experiential Trinity.

Coabsolute relationship in the second experiential Trinity.

Coinfinite participation in the Trinity of Trinities, but we have no satisfactory
concept as to what this really means.

P1292:6,117:7.9
This is one of the generally accepted
hypotheses of the future of the Supreme,
but there are also many speculations concerning his relations to the present
grand universe subsequent to its attainment of the status of light and life.
P1292:7,117:7.10
The present goal of the superuniverses is to become, as they are and within
their potentials, perfect, even as is Havona. This perfection pertains to physical
and spiritual attainment, even to administrative, governmental, and fraternal
development. It is believed that, in the ages to come, the possibilities for
disharmony, maladjustment, and misadaptation will be eventually exhausted in
the superuniverses. The energy circuits will be in perfect balance and in complete
subjugation to mind, while spirit, in the presence of personality, will have
achieved the dominance of mind. P1292:8,117:7.11
It is conjectured that at this far-distant time the spirit person of the Supreme
and attained power of the Almighty will have achieved co-ordinate development,
and that both, as unified in and by the Supreme Mind, will factualize as the
Supreme Being, a completed actuality in the universes -- an actuality which
will be observable by all creature intelligences, reacted to by all created
energies, co-ordinated in all spiritual entities, and experienced by all universe
personalities. P1292:9,117:7.12
This concept implies the actual sovereignty of the Supreme in the grand universe.
It is altogether likely that the present Trinity administrators will continue
as his vicegerents, but we believe that the present demarcations between the
seven superuniverses will gradually disappear, and that the entire grand universe
will function as a perfected whole. P1292:10,117:7.13
It is possible that the Supreme may then be personally resident on Uversa, the
headquarters of Orvonton, from which he will direct the administration of the
time creations, but this is really only a conjecture. Certainly, though, the
personality of the Supreme Being will be definitely contactable at some specific
locality, although the ubiquity of his Deity presence will probably continue
to permeate the universe of universes. What the relation of the superuniverse
citizens of that age will be to the Supreme we do not know, but it may be something
like the present relationship between the Havona natives and the Paradise Trinity.

P1293:1,117:7.14
The perfected grand universe of those future days will be vastly different
from what it is at present. Gone will be the thrilling adventures of the organization
of the galaxies of space, the planting of life on the uncertain worlds of
time, and the evolving of harmony out of chaos, beauty out of potentials,
truth out of meanings, and goodness out of values. The time universes will
have achieved the fulfillment of finite destiny! And perhaps for a space there
will be rest, relaxation from the agelong struggle for evolutionary perfection.
But not for long! Certainly, surely, and inexorably the
enigma of the emerging
Deity of God the Ultimate will challenge these perfected citizens of the settled
universes just as their struggling evolutionary forebears were once challenged
by the quest for God the Supreme. The curtain of cosmic destiny will draw
back to reveal the transcendent grandeur of the alluring absonite quest for
the attainment of the Universal Father on those new and higher levels revealed
in the ultimate of creature experience.
